I think you are confusing your legal terminology. I've never heard the term "reasonable search" applied to any search. There is a a phrase; "reasonable suspicion," that is used to support a field search conducted under a "Terry stop."

What is illegal search and seize?

Search and seizure are two different things. A search is an intrusion into a reasonable expectation of privacy. A seizure is the taking or interference with custody or movement of a person or property. You can have a search without a seizure, and a seizure without a search. Either is unlawful if the search or seizure is not supported by the probable cause to believe that a crime has occurred, is about to occur, or is occurring, and the search or seizure will result in evidence of that crime. Probable cause is a reasonable belief, based on facts available to the person doing the searching and seizing, that criminal activity is taking place. With some exceptions, an officer can't conduct a search just because he wants to, or on pure speculation. There has to be some reasonable basis for the search.

How do a school's administrator's search and seizure rights differ from those of a law enforcement officer?

While both school administrators and law enforcement officers have the authority to search and seize items, there are some differences in their rights. Law enforcement officers generally require a search warrant based on probable cause, unless an exception applies. In contrast, school administrators, acting in their capacity to maintain discipline and ensure safety, have more lenient standards and can conduct searches based on reasonable suspicion, without the need for a warrant. However, this authority is limited to school property and school-related activities.
